    DEVELOPMENT CONTROL AND REGULATION COMMITTEE 27 July 2010 A Report by the Assistant Director - Planning & Sustainability _____________________________________________________________________ Application No 1/10/9006 District Carlisle Applicant United Utilities Parish Stanwix Rural Clearwater 4 Lingley Green Avenue Date of Receipt 11 May 2010 Warrington WA5 3BP _____________________________________________________________________ PROPOSAL To construct a new Wastewater Pumping Station, removal of 2m of hedgerow, access track and erection of motor control kiosk. Field north of 'Laithholme', Park Broom, Carlisle, CA6 4QH _____________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION 1.1 That planning permission is granted for the reasons stated in Appendix 1 and subject to the conditions in Appendix 2. 2.0 THE PROPOSAL 2.1 The application site is a field located adjacent to an unclassified road leading south from the A689 to the hamlet of Park Broom, which is situated to the east of Carlisle. This section of the field is currently being used as the contractors compound for the new sewer works. A 3m wide section of hedgerow has been removed to give access for the contractor's compound. This would leave space for provision of the access gates for entry into the pumping station. 2.2 The proposal is for construction of an underground pumping station to serve a new sewer being built as part of a first time sewerage scheme for the village of Park Broom. Currently properties are served by septic tanks, which discharge via ditches, some of which are heavily polluted, to the River Eden. The above ground development would consist of a concrete slab over the pumping station and a control kiosk. In addition there would be a grass seeded compacted stone access track and turning space created to enable servicing of the development.

  • The Emergence of the Cumbrian Kingdom
    The emergence and transformation of medieval Cumbria The Cumbrian kingdom is one of the more shadowy polities of early medieval northern Britain.1 Our understanding of the kingdom’s history is hampered by the patchiness of the source material, and the few texts that shed light on the region have proved difficult to interpret. A particular point of debate is the interpretation of the terms ‘Strathclyde’ and ‘Cumbria’, a matter that has periodically drawn comment since the 1960s. Some scholars propose that the terms were applied interchangeably to the same polity, which stretched from Clydesdale to the Lake District. Others argue that the terms applied to different territories: Strathclyde was focused on the Clyde Valley whereas Cumbria/Cumberland was located to the south of the Solway. The debate has significant implications for our understanding of the extent of the kingdom(s) of Strathclyde/Cumbria, which in turn affects our understanding of politics across tenth- and eleventh-century northern Britain. It is therefore worth revisiting the matter in this article, and I shall put forward an interpretation that escapes from the dichotomy that has influenced earlier scholarship. I shall argue that the polities known as ‘Strathclyde’ and ‘Cumbria’ were connected but not entirely synonymous: one evolved into the other. In my view, this terminological development was prompted by the expansion of the kingdom of Strathclyde beyond Clydesdale. This reassessment is timely because scholars have recently been considering the evolution of Cumbrian identity across a much longer time-period. In 1974 the counties of Cumberland and Westmorland were joined to Lancashire-North-of the-Sands and part of the West Riding of Yorkshire to create the larger county of Cumbria.

  • Hadrian's Wall Page 1
    017687 71656 www.awalkinthecountry.com Hadrian's Wall Page 1 Hadrian's Wall Hadrian’s Wall was the north-west frontier of the Roman empire for nearly 300 years. It was built by the Roman army on the orders of Emperor Hadrian following his visit to Britain in AD 122 in order to protect the northern extreme of the Roman Empire. Hadrian’s Wall is a striking example of the organisation of a military zone and illustrates the defensive techniques and geopolitical strategies of ancient Rome. The route crosses from coast to coast – from Wallsend on the River Tyne in the east to Bowness-on-Solway in the west. At every mile along the Wall, there is a milecastle with two watchtowers in-between. Although parts of the wall have been plundered for local houses, the central section is very well preserved, as are the various forts and milecastles on the way. Hadrian’s Wall was inscribed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1987.
